The Prince of Wales visited a cancer research centre to learn how Covid-19 has affected its funding today - and was gifted tie-dye bags for Camilla and Kate Middleton by a schoolboy who raised £1,850 for the charity.
Prince Charles, 72, who is patron of Breast Cancer Now, arrived at the organisation s Toby Robins Research Centre, at The Institute of Cancer Research, in London s Fulham Road, 21 years after he opened it.
He was greeted by the charity s chief executive, Baroness Delyth Morgan, before going to a research lab.
The prince heard from Dr Rachel Brough, senior scientific officer at the Institute of Cancer Research, and Dr Alicia Okines, consultant medical oncologist at the Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, about an innovative trial at the research centre.
